Stanley Clarke: Jazz in the Garden
by AAJ Italy Staff
In questo album pieno di stimoli e spunti di riflessione troviamo tre musicisti, solitamente associati con un jazz elettrico tendente alla fusion, capaci di mettere assieme i loro enormi talenti per un incontro acustico che alterna sapientemente brani originali con standard jazzistici ("Take the Coltrane" e “Solar" ci sembrano in particolare evidenza) e non (la conclusiva ...
